I’m an Icelandic woman who has made the United States my home. When I’m not lost in the pages of a good book, I’m blogging about life in the slower lanes. An Eckhart Tolle fan, I find joy in serving the community and nurturing my backyard wildlife habitat.
Just read The Ten Year Affair—a tender, wry look at marriage, desire, and the lives we don’t choose. A lovely companion to Albom’s Twice. Highly recommend.

If our courts are the last line of defense, yet they stand unarmed—who will protect justice when power comes with force?

Jean, it's so good to find a like-minded spirit. I'm building a habitat in my backyard and watching the birds and squirrels visiting my birdhouse and suet. Happy New year!
All during the growing season I lament that black-eyed Susans don’t seem to benefit wildlife. They are mostly ignored by pollinators. But then comes winter and the American goldfinch finds the seeds delectable. #birds #nativeplants

“I say to you quite frankly that the time for racial discrimination is over,” he told Georgians in his inaugural speech. “No poor, rural, weak, or Black person should ever have to bear the additional burden of being deprived of the opportunity of an education, a job, or simple justice.” J. Carter
